A New York judge on Oct. 6 upheld a Long Island county law banning male athletes from participating in women’s sports at county-run facilities.

State Supreme Court Justice R. Bruce Cozzens wrote in the ruling that the ban still allows these athletes to participate in coed sports leagues at county facilities, while protecting women and girls.
